Coining is a common healing practice used among Asian patients within the United States. Traditionally, coining is used for conditions associated with "wind illness". It is also used with a wide variety of febrile illnesses as well as stress related symptoms in adults such as headaches, muscle aches and pain, low energy. The practice produces linear petechiae and ecchymosis on the chest and back which resolve over several days.
